Soil pore structure dynamics under steady-state wetting-drying cycle

Geoderma (2023)

Dmitry Fomin Anna Yudina К. А. Романенко К. Н. Абросимов Marina V. Karsanina

The soil pore space is an arena for processes responsible for numerous critical soil functions. We sampled 15 soil samples from 3 horizons (A, E, Bt) and performed a detailed X-ray microtomography (XCT) imaging study of the full wetting-drying (W-D) curve. This way, we revealed the dynamics of soil pore structure under slow water changes for Albic Retisols. In total, our analysis is based on 135 3D tomography scans (9 soil moisture points for each sample). Using the obtained structural information in the form of binary pore-solid segmentations, we were able not only to visualize structural dynamics (which showed significant changes within the soil at ∼10 µm – 3 mm pore sizes range) but also computed major classical morphological metrics. The analysis of these parameters and conceptual model of structural behavior revealed that after the W-D cycle the studied soil degraded in general. This is contrary to the prevailing previous findings for mainly compacted soils where W-D cycles led to structural improvements. We discussed the major implications of these findings and outlined a possibility to deepen our understanding of soil structure-function relationships, including dynamic hydraulic soil properties and 3D soil structure digital model.

Morphogenesis and quantification of the pore space in a tephra-palaeosol sequence in Tlaxcala, central Mexico

Soil Research (2019)

Lilit Pogosyan Alfonso Gastélum Strozzi Blanca Lucía Prado Pano J. Márquez К. Н. Абросимов

Tepetates are indurated subsoil horizons developed in tephra-derived materials in various parts of the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt. The term ‘tepetate’ includes fragipans, duripans, pedosediments and saprolites, derived from vitric rhyolitic tuff, Pleistocene volcanic ashes or pyroclastic flows. All soils with tepetates are at high risk of erosion and so they have been intensively studied for decades. The tepetates are common in Tlaxcala State of central Mexico, being formed under Ustic Isomesic soil climate. The aim of this investigation was to characterise the pore space of fragipan-type tepetates and the role of clay components in their formation. We studied porosity of tepetate from a tephra-palaeosol sequence in the north of Tlaxcala State, in undisturbed soil samples. Observations of pore space were made in 2D and 3D by analysing microscope images of thin sections and cross-sectional images from a computed tomography scanner. In the thin sections we also identified and described clay illuvial pedofeatures. Micromorphological observations showed two main pore types. Small rounded pores had a homogeneous distribution and were probably formed before the clay illuviation process that took place in a palaeosol formed on the tepetate material. The distribution pattern of the small pores in the studied tepetate was similar to that in the fragic horizon, which was probably formed by a hydro-consolidation process. Large crack-pores were formed during the palaeosol formation. Later these large pores were filled by illuvial clay coatings and so we conclude that each tepetate was part of the set of Bt horizons in the palaeosols of Luvisol type.

Исследование микростроения мерзлых почв и дисперсных пород с помощью рентгеновской компьютерной томографии: методы, подходы, перспективы

Processes of cyclic freezing and thawing make considerable contribution to configuration of soils and rocks. X-ray tomography method allows us to research undisturbed soil samples in frozen condition. Because of difference in x-ray attenuation coefficient we can separately study mineral matrix, ice inclusions and pore space. This fact essentially increases opportunities for investigations of soil and rock cryogen deformations. In this paper we present the results of model experiment with bulk soil samples of different genesis investigated by a method of X-ray tomography. This experiment revealed the specificities of the soil structure and its pore space dynamics in conditions of freezing and thawing cycle. We developed a research scheme for structure and pore space dynamics, and studied the soil structure and pore space dynamics after different number of cycles of freezing and thawing. Example of kaolin and sand mixture shows the ring-shaped sorting of sand particles and their movement to ice schlieren surface. We postulated that the matter of soil of different genesis has different reaction on freezing and thawing impact. The rank from major to minor cryogenic changes in soil material: Albiluvisol - Chernozem - Solonetz.

Effects of freezing-thawing cycles on porosity and geometric configuration of an artificial soils in laboratory modeling

IOP Conference Series Earth and Environmental Science (2021)

Variation in physical properties of soil depends heavily on freezing process during seasonal changes. Seasonal changes in cold humid regions lead to increasing of soil transformation speed. In the late autumn, soil profile is saturated with water through fallout. During winter, soil solution freezing leads to soil volume increasing due to water transition into the ice. Soil solution freezes in larger pores and the moment water flow stops, water phase transition leads to smaller pores and capillary deformation. Intensity of pore and capillary depletion will define extent of density changes during freezing. Rapidly developing urbanization process requires expansion of urban greening and tree planting, which can be successfully done by sustainable artificial soil implementation for each region, according to its climate conditions and pedogenesis. In order to observe possible porosity and structure changes in artificial soils and change rate due to freeze-thaw phenomenon, we have performed an experiment with a use of artificial soil models and then we have applied X˗Ray computer microtomography method to analyse soil pore space and its composition. As a result, we have seen significant compaction and pore diameter differentiation, as well as geometrical configuration changes.

Evidence for stages of landscape evolution in Central Mexico during the late Quaternary from paleosol-pedosediment sequences

Quaternary Research (2022)

С. А. Сычева Lilit Pogosyan Sergey Sedov Elizabeth Solleiro‐Rebolledo Alexandra Golyeva

Abstract Paleosols interbedded with pyroclastic deposits have been proven to be an important paleoenvironmental proxy for the late Quaternary in Central Mexico. We studied a key upland section and several profiles on the slopes and lowlands of the Tlaxcala Block, assuming that the topographic variability of the soil-sedimentary mantle contains the complete record of the landscape history. The upland section included three paleosols separated by tepetates (compact volcanic pedosediments) and reflected a general trend of environmental evolution during the last 40 ka. Particle-size distribution, bulk chemical composition, magnetic characteristics, computed tomography, and micromorphological observations demonstrated a strong seasonality of paleoclimate at the end of MIS3, followed by cool wet conditions during the last glacial maximum, subsequent warming at the beginning of the Holocene, and drying during the last 3 ka. It was shown that tepetates had well-developed pedogenetic features that contribute to the paleosol record. The studied slope and lowland profiles reflected the main phases of geomorphic activity in the terminal Pleistocene and the early Holocene. These phases are linked to paleoclimate fluctuations in Central Mexico at the end of the last glaciation.
